With the change in TikTok ownership, TikTok users in the U.S. are collectively freaking out over the company’s updated privacy policy after being alerted to the changes through an in-app message.
The revised document details the U.S. joint venture’s conditions for using its service, including the specific location information it may collect.
Many users are also posting to social media about language found in the policy, which says that TikTok could collect sensitive information about its users, including their “sexual life or sexual orientation, status as transgender or nonbinary, citizenship or immigration status.”
My decision to stick with rednote after the first wave of bullshit has been vindicated.
You’re worried about privacy, and your answer is Rednote?
Some people just can’t be helped I guess
I am worried about privacy from the US government. I do not care what the chinese government knows about me because I am not Chinese.
